I've been using VNC for about a year now. When I am away from home and
office and accessing my office Linux box from public terminals (which
alas, are always MS Wins), VNC is invaluable. However, I am also
frustrated by its minor shortcomings, such as:
* Certain control characters, notably ctrl-a, do not seem to work.
* Occasionally the windowing system of the client gets so hopelessly
messed up that the client needs to be rebooted.
* Since VNC by definition is trying to fit a whole desktop screen
into a browser space, one must do scrolling, and this becomes
quite annoying.
* VNC does tend to be slow.
Moreover, the documentation is not very good at all. It is not clear,
for instance, how to configure the windowing on a Linux server.
